I love this digressive thread, a pal and I took a borrowed 2cv to Monaco in the 70s with a blast round Le Mans on the way. It was packed to the roof with tents etc and had to be driven flat out most of the time but what a fab machine. Even the seats lifted out - wonderful when camping. My present motor is also a 2 cyl machine, a 5 year old Fiat 500c with a roll back roof and a wonderful Sport button which turns it into a wee Ferrari (with the correct noise). A car with character quite different to the 2cv but just as much fun in its own way which, for the first time for many years, makes me just want to go for a spin. Says it all really.
